Synopsis
A group of children build a world of their own amidst the dangers of armed conflict. We meet Falta, a hard-working, studious girl who is struggling to come to terms with the death of her father in a terrorist attack. Her classmate Ibrahim and older brother Mohamad try to find a balance between their childlike vitality and a traumatic past that robs them of their eight- and eleven-year-old innocence.
